If Trump Wins… Invest in Manufacturers of Bullet Proof Vests

In a campaign promise that falls into the “you can’t make this up” category we now have Donald Trump promising to end gun free school zones. I have one word of advice: if Mr. Trump wins, invest in those who manufacture bullet proof vests because if kids are allowed to carry concealed weapons all bets are off when it comes to breaking up fights. And lest you think Mr. Trump is going to restrict guns on campuses in any way, read this response Mr. Trump offered to a question about his proposal:

“I’m going to get rid of the gun-free zones on the military bases. I’m also going to do it in schools. You say you have a school, and it’s gun-free. The criminals are out there saying, ‘This is incredible. This is perfect. There’s no guns in there. I’m the only one that’s going to have guns.’ You can’t do it. I’m going to work with the states, and if I have to, I’m going to try and perhaps override the states if I have to, if I’m allowed to do that. . . . But we can’t have gun-free zones where, I see schools advertise, ‘We are a gun-free zone.’ And then you have these crazy people out there saying, ‘Boy, this is the most incredible thing,’ and that’s happening.”

One hopeful caveat: Mr. Trump HAS been known to change his position when questioned… but one grim caveat: few Republican candidates want to cross the NRA and they want the ban lifted….
